Being able to cook for yourself is becoming one of the most valuable skills you can have. I had pork belly, sweet potato, quinoa, bok choy, eggs, and chickpeas. I had no idea what I was making. I threw the pork belly in the slow cooker, hoped for the best, and built a bowl around it. That’s the beauty of cooking at home. It doesn’t have to be perfect. You experiment, learn, and use what you have. Most importantly, you know exactly what’s going into your food. One of the healthiest things you can do is start making more of your own meals. And digestion starts before the first bite. See the food. Smell it. Be around it while it cooks. Take a few deep breaths before eating. Slow down. Chew your food. Be present with your meal. Then go for a walk afterward. We’ve overcomplicated food. Buy real ingredients. Cook them yourself. Throw them in a bowl. Share it with people you love.
